Happy List: #79

July 20, 2018/

Folks.

This is the first time I’ve ever said this and I’m sure I’ll be over it in a flash, but I am SICK of Amazon this week. The internet madness would not stop. In fairness, I might have been more into Prime Day if the things I’d actually wanted went on sale.

Therefore, this week I wrote about going to the DMV and eating fake pasta. It seemed like the right thing to do to maintain balance. After all, this blog is my happy place and nothing makes me happier than…staying on the right side of the law and eating good food.

I like this idea for Spin the Bottle WAY better than the original and it is a fun idea for a girl’s birthday party.

When you spin the bottle (or in this case a tube of lip gloss), you get a fingernail painted in whatever color of polish the bottle lands on. At the end of the game, you should have a rainbow manicure. My daughter and her friends would have fun with this game.

Also, the heatwave has been blanketing other parts of Europe too. In England, the heatwave is uncovering forgotten ruins: outlines of old homes, gardens, tombs and airstrips. You have to check this article in The Telegraph out! The pictures are fascinating.

TURN THAT MOON

I like this balloon idea because the creator of this centerpiece saw the balloon meant to be a moon from a different viewpoint.

Turn the moon on its side and now it is a boat!

This is such a good example of why we need people in this world with different backgrounds and perspectives. It’s how hard problems are solved.

And this is only THE ENTRY of this home. Go check out the whole darn thing at Norris Architecture. Also, prepare to lose a good chunk of your life just drooling over all of their design ideas.

Totally worth it.

AMEN.

“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.” – Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Thank you for being you and sharing part of your day (and lives) with me.
